AXIS OF LIFE Bulgaria-Hungary, 2025, 115 min, color

A pilgrimage in which a spiritual master must choose one of his disciples as his successor turns into an inner journey for each of the participants. Who am I? Where do I come from? What is left when I am no longer here? A mystic tale about the path of the human soul through eternity.
